This is how Gran Fondo Cambrils Park started.

“In October 2013 there was an event to present Cambrils Park Resort and its surrounding’s sporting potential to different actors from the tourist sector and the cycling world. Among them, there wasRoberto Iglesias,Quebrantahuesos’ alma mater, which isthe biggest and toughest bicycle touring event in Spain. He suggested that the area and the Resort were the perfect combination to organize a bicycle touring event. Thus, together, Cambrils Park Resort, Cycling Costa Daurada and Patronat de Turisme, took up the challenge and got to work to make it a reality.

And that is howon April 2014 Gran Fondo Cambrils Park was bornwith the participation of 900 people which has steadily grown tothe record number of 2.500 cyclists.

Two routes. An Unforgettable experience. Cycling for everyone.

The 6th of April eventoffers two routes. One is longer than the other to offer different physical demand levels. This way all cyclist can give their best and enjoy theGran Fondo Cambrils Park.

It isthe longest Gran Fondo route, specially addressed to cyclists who have trained more. It goes aroundMontsant’s Natural Park, is183 kmlong, has3.000 meters high difference, goes thru6 mountain passes and 21 villages. The sacrifice of this challenge is more than compensated by the beauty of the landscape.

Escaladei's Tour

This route is named afterthe municipality of Escaladei, God’s stairs in Latin. It can’t be anyplace with such a name! It is the origin of Priorat’s wine history and the region’s name.

Time trial to please the most competitive ones.

Gran Fondo Cambrils Parkis not a competitive race, on the contrary, it is a bicycle touring event. The ones who complete the route faster are not rewarded, however, there are other types of rewards like, for example to the veteran cyclist, the one that comes from further, the biggest club, etc.

Nevertheless, those still with energy,on Sunday 7th will be able to satisfy their competitive spirit with the time trial.

Why should you participate in the Gran Fondo Cambrils Park?

Jaume Rué is clear about it: “BecauseGran Fondo Cambrils Park is a distinct event. It doesn’t exist anything similar in Spain. To start, it is a two-day event. The bicycle touring event starts and finishes at the same Resort you are staying at, which makes the logistics easier. It is a first-class Resort almost in front of the sea. And, in addition, it is addressed to all family members: participants and their companions.”
